Chanting crowds surrounded the entrance to Brescia University College as hundreds of students, faculty and graduates protested the school's planned merger with Western University.

Wild stressed that both student and staff voices “weren’t consulted when this decision was initially made,” saying that through Wednesday’s protest, “our voices will be heard.”

“This is where I found myself,” she said. “This is where I built myself into the person that I am. I wouldn’t be doing any of the things that I am doing without this school, so to hear that it might be gone within a year is heartbreaking.”Amy Simon / Global News “Brescia was such a safe and amazing place for women to really come into their own and to learn more about themselves in a safe space while making great friendships along the way,” Shervill said.
